Actor Adam Thomas, singer Sinitta and comedian Seann Walsh are among the stars entering the jungle for the new series of I’m A Celebrity… South Africa.

Pussycat Doll Ashley Roberts, soap legend Bev Callard, Olympian Mo Farah and Boxer David Haye will also be taking part in the upcoming series of the ITV show, which will be hosted by Ant and Dec. Gogglebox star Scarlett Moffatt, who won the reality show in 2016 and was crowned Queen of the Jungle, is also heading back into camp, as are Craig Charles, Gemma Collins, Jimmy Bullard and Harry Redknapp.

The spin-off series of I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! sees familiar faces return to the jungle. It started in 2023, with Myleene Klass winning that series. ITV has teased that the upcoming season is “on a whole new level”, with trials that will be “tougher than ever”.

“With relentless twists and turns, the campmates will never know what’s coming next,” the channel teased. “They will be faced with challenges at every turn, quickly learning that with big decisions come even bigger consequences…”

It’s also thought that the series will see some late arrivals, which is usually the case, although those names have not been announced.

The celebs taking part have already endured life in the Australian jungle, except for Olympian Mo and Corrie star Bev. They took part amid the coronavirus pandemic, when the show relocated to Gwrych Castle in Wales.

An exciting new element for this second series of I’m A Celebrity… South Africa is that the public will have the power to decide who is crowned the ultimate legend 2026. After weeks of shocks, showdowns and survival, viewers will be able to have their say and cast the final vote in a live grand final broadcast direct from London.

I’m A Celebrity…Unpacked will also return as a vodcast hosted by Sam Thompson and Kemi Rodgers. It will be available on ITVX, Spotify and YouTube and an audio only version will be available wherever you get your podcasts.

A teaser for the spin-off recently showed the hosts sitting by a flickering campfire, when Ant was startled by a sudden, disturbing noise.

“What was that?” he asked Dec, who pointed behind him and casually replied: “Just a big cat.”

Dec’s remark sent Ant bolting from his seat with a panicked shout of “A big cat?! No way!” and Dec quickly followed suit.

Another teaser for the upcoming series showed Ant wishing Dec a good night as they prepared to turn in, with Dec replying: “Don’t let the bed bugs bite” but cheekily extends the warning to include “the ticks… and the mozzies… and the scorpions… and the sand eyed spiders… or the kudus… or the baboons!”
